Small yellow plate vehicles require a B2 driver's license to operate. Introduction to small yellow plate vehicles: The small yellow plate indicates a self-dumping low-speed truck as stated on the vehicle registration certificate. Introduction to B2 driver's license: The B2 driver's license, commonly known as the large truck driver's license, allows holders to operate heavy and medium-duty trucks, as well as large, heavy, and medium-sized special operation vehicles. It also permits driving vehicles covered by C1, C2, C3, C4, and M class licenses. The full name is motor vehicle driver's license. The current driver's license classification system was established in 2010, comprising 16 categories: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, D, E, F, M, N, P. Each license category specifies the types of vehicles that can be legally operated.
The other day a buddy asked me what the little yellow license plate means. Actually, vehicles with yellow plates typically refer to those large trucks or construction vehicles - their plates are yellow, unlike private cars which have blue plates that allow more flexibility. From my experience, driving these vehicles requires at least a Class B driver's license. For example, a B2 license specifically covers medium-sized and larger vehicles. Otherwise, if you get stopped by traffic police, the consequences range from fines and penalty points to having your vehicle impounded. Why the stricter requirements? Because these large vehicles have long bodies that make turning difficult, require longer braking distances, and are more prone to accidents. My friend once tried driving one with just a regular car license and got caught - ended up getting lectured about safety too. So always verify your license type before driving these vehicles - never cut corners for convenience.
